A staggering loophole in Georgia law seems to say that, if a justice loses reelection, they could resign & cancel election post facto.

One of 2 justices on the May ballot assured to Bolts they won’t do that. The other didn’t answer. boltsmag.org/georgia-suprem…
The justice who didn’t answer was part of the majority opinion that expanded the loophole in 2020, raising fears that it may be used in this way into the future. One of the most bizarre stories we’ve had to cover at Bolts since 2022. boltsmag.org/dystopian-loop…
Especially given the extraordinarily tragic and frankly incomprehensible events of December 2024. In that case, the governor refused the judge’s resignation but critics of the loophole say the law has to change so this isn’t up to the governor. boltsmag.org/georgia-judici…

🧵 The world has pulled every string, called in every favor, turned every dial, and searched under all the rocks to stabilize the oil supply.

There are no tricks left.

Gas in the US is going to $5 and diesel to $6 and nothing is going to stop it now.

1/12
The US operational pause disguised as a ceasefire was due to an exhausted supply of precision munitions and anti-ballistic air defense.

The operational plan for Operation Epic Fury was fatally flawed because it relied on bad assumptions about Iran's government.

2/12
Claims that the Iranian Navy was wiped out, 89% of SRBM and IRBM TELs were destroyed, and missile and drone production eliminated were all false.

When major hostilities paused on April 8, all combatants needed to reconstitute.

These triplets who all became severely autistic hours after the same pneumococcal vaccine is irrefutable proof vaccines cause autism.

Notably all three also lost their cranial reflexes, mirroring decades of data vaccine-induced microstrokes cause brain damage SIDS and autism by causing the blood cells in the body to electrically clump together, thereby obstructing the smallest blood vessels in the brain (along with .

Remarkably, these microstrokes are very easy to detect once you know how to look for them, and it eye-opening how common they are.🧵
In this article, I reveal how simple electrical changes in the blood can precipitate the wide range of severe but inexplicable injuries seen after vaccination, and how this same process underlies many other complex chronic illnesses.

A Canadian neurologist realized he kept seeing undiagnosed strokes in children after vaccination, and that the most severe ones, like what the triplets experienced, were followed by autistic regressions. Many readers have sent me similar accounts like this: Image

🚨BREAKING: South Carolina Governor will NOT call special session!

“Republicans” refuse Trump’s demand to redraw unconstitutional racist districts.

The world is finally seeing that RINOs in SC are indeed the worst in the nation.

Now that our weak Gov predictably let conservatives down, the only play is for the Legislature to do the work 👇

The Basques are overwhelmingly R1b but speak a non-IE language. Same for the Etruscans. And ancient Iberians, and so on. That’s a contradiction?

Not really. Their mitochondrial DNA was overwhelmingly pre-IE. Their autosomal DNA was also more pre-IE. Why should they speak IE?➡️🧵 Image
Mothers are usually more important for language transfer than fathers. Pre-IE societies were also usually less patriarchal than Indo-Europeans.

What we know is that IE and pre-IE ancestry blended, and that language transferred unevenly depending on the society. Why?➡️ Image
Well, language shift have to do with power. After the Bell Beaker migrations, IE had a position of power, so language shift favoured it. But some factors could halt that process.

1⃣ Population density. Pre-IE languages survived better in the most densely populated zones… Image

The Epstein files aren’t really “files” the word downplays this in a way that doesn’t align with the scale and magnitude of what is documented.

They’re decades of FBI reports, police records, and buried complaints stacked on top of each other, ignored, delayed, or sealed.

This was a system that ran in plain site, funded by some of the wealthiest families in the world: an elite access network.
2/
There is no evidence it ever stopped operating just because Epstein is dead and Ghislaine is in federal custody.

Networks like this don’t vanish.
They are agile and well-funded. They adapt, they rebrand, they get smarter.

Removing two names doesn’t dismantle a system.
3/
This was never just about Epstein or Maxwell.

The files show a pattern: years of reports, warnings, and people who knew. Over and over. A PR machine that covered for it all—and still churns.

If you think it ended with Epstein and Maxwell, you haven’t looked closely enough.

I have. And I’m not done. To support this independent and relentless work, follow/subscribe here and on substack for deeper dives. (Link in bio)

Daily Ukraine map thread for Monday 4th May 2026

Highlights: A focus of a months worth of publically published geolocations at one of the most hectic sites at the front, the town of Kostyantynivka. Russian infiltrators have taken heavily casualties but have been sighted numerous times infiltrating into the central part of town.

Elsewhere, a Ukrainian drone struck an apartment in Mosfilm Tower. No further significant damage was recorded at Primorsk on satellite imagery after the strikes there.

Learning the art of not being emotionally controlled will change your life.

Here's a Step by Step Guide:
There are 4 main ways people emotionally control others:

1. Guilt tripping
2. Sabotaging
3. Stonewalling
4. Future faking
Guilt tripping is when someone tries to get you to change your behavior or remove a boundary. It's done through pressure and works by activating your empathy.

It sounds like: "after all I've done for you."

This is terrible, of course, but an important thing to understand about the book world is that a lot of writers are hopping on these bandwagons out of sheer (short-sighted) commercial self-interest. It's about taking down your competitors so you have fewer competitors.
This stuff is always the most deranged in industries with lots of wannabes and a winner-takes-all structure. Everyone is envious of everyone else's success, everyone is in some small way cheered when someone else goes down in flames.
Academia in dying fields with like two tenure track jobs in the entire country, book publishing, indie video gaming...it's always fields where only a few can make it and so everyone lowkey knows they benefit from someone else going down.

Disabled people should not live in poverty.

It makes no sense the way we treat our people with disabilities in Canada. Canada has the full apparatus to implement adjusted payments, yet we typically support disabled people WELL under the poverty line.

/1 Image
Canada has an official poverty line: the Market Basket Measure. It's regionally calibrated, methodologically sound, and updated by StatCan.



A single person on BC PWD receives ~$18.4k/year. The Vancouver MBM is ~$29k.

/2www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.…
That's not a rounding error. It's a structural choice.

PWD recipients in Vancouver sit at roughly 47% of the poverty line and below the Deep Income Poverty threshold (75% of MBM), which is the level StatCan uses to flag the worst material deprivation in the country.

Azeen Ghorayshi and Austin Mitchell were 2026 Pulitzer Prize finalists for their podcast The Protocol about youth gender medicine. Image
Like clockwork, Harvard Law School clinical instructor and trans activist Alejandra Caraballo has expressed her rage that Azeen Ghorayshi was a Pulitzer Prize finalist. Caraballo does not seem to understand that being a finalist in and of itself is a considerable honor. Image
